(x)/(6) +14 = 18

(1)/(6)x + 14 = 18 (simplify the equation)

(1)/(6)x = 18-14 (subrtact both sides by 14)

(1)/(6)x = 4

x = 4*6 (multiply both sides by 6)

x = 24


Hope it helped,

Happy homework/ study/ exam!

Hey there! :)

x/6 + 14 = 18

Switch the equation around:

18 - 14 = x/6
(The sign changes when moved to the other side)

18 - 14 = 4

4 = x/6

Switch the equation around(AGAIN):

4 × 6 = x
4 × 6 = 24

24 = x

Hope this helps :)
